3rd in a life time trip

[loopyloufew]

Hi, This time last year I was on here A LOT mostly reading but sometimes posting. We had a countdown of 14 days at this point last year!

After the holiday I had a serious case of post Disney blues plus a couple of weeks later my Grandma died. So I stopped visiting it made me too sad.

But about a month ago I got a new countdown! We are very excited for about 20 hours then we had another massive family crisis which totally took the sheen off.

Anyway enough about that..

Things are smoothing out now and time to get on with the planning.

This is the plan so far
I have booked flights and accommodation with Virgin. We haven't used Virgin before so any tips would be great.
We are staying at Enclave Suites on I Drive.
This is supposed to be a budget trip and I have agreed that we probably wont do Disney as we've done it twice before. The probably is the most important word in the sentence.

What we are planning is universal with a stay at HRH
Discovery Cove
Sea World
and my husband is hoping to do the space centre.

While I am watching the timer tick down I am working on saving £ and loosing Lbs for this trip!

So glad you have the bug...we are now on our 5th Once in a lifetime trip - LOL!

Once you have been to Disney, no where else compares.

Yeah I've been...lost count actually...about 11 times and the 6th time was 'the last time'
Actually my mom just said yesterday "this will be my last trip" and I had to remind her that she's said that already 4 years running...

[electo]

this will be our 5th once in a life time trip and wont be our last

i know you said your on a budget but you have got to do disney again even if its just once or twice

we love it over there and i can never get enough of the parks

we still haven't done all of disney yet but getting closer

we are staying at the rosen inn @ pointe orlando for the 3rd time
super hotel and great location at the quiet end of I drive

try to get a room in tower block F high up and overlooking I drive
its a long walk from reception but nice and quiet

Sorry to read youve not been having a good time of late

Laughing very loud at this post, I'm also planning my second once in a life time trip!

[missdopey]

Our first time was meant to be the only time, while there we realised we'd be back. This will be our 8th trip in 9 years and me and DH managed to convince each other to buy DVC last time so now we have to go back. Not that you'll hear me complaining.

We are booked for our "3rd" once in a lifetime trip also, why does it have to be so addictive...lol!

We are not visiting Disney next time, just Universal and shopping...
